Cyanotype Chemistry – Simple & Fun Sun Printing

Cyanotype is an early photographic process, discovered in 1842, known for its rich Prussian blue prints. Used historically for blueprints and scientific photograms, it remains a favorite for artists and creatives today.

How It Works

Expose objects or photographic negatives on a sensitized surface to sunlight (UV) for detailed prints. Works with tools, plants, fabrics, and more—great for all ages and artistic styles!

Suitable Surfaces

Natural fibers & porous materials: cotton, linen, silk, canvas, wool, paper, wood, leather.

Chemistry

• Part A: Potassium Ferricyanide – Reacts with light-sensitive iron salts.
• Part B: Ferric Ammonium Citrate – Enables UV exposure reaction.

A quick, easy, and magical way to create art with sunlight!
